Kate Hudson patio, Pacific Palisades

A dismal space under a deck was converted into a romantic outdoor living room for the actress to entertain. Alesch and Standefer designed the fireplace and then added hanging globe lamps for warmth, plus Middle Eastern mashrabiya-style screens. Alesch drew the designs for the panels and had them made in Egypt, but he noted Los Angeles residents have plenty of ways to re-create this look themselves. "There are a lot of importers in L.A. who you can order them for you, if you tell them the size you need."
